so i can drown my thoughts just a little bit quicker
dancing barefoot in the dead of winter
so i can numb this heart that's full of splinters
all wounds but these clocks are at a standstill
and i'm counting every second that you're not here
but only in my dreams do you appear
am i allowed to lay down my smile
and be bitter just for a while?
don't keep pulling me under
we were meant to stay afloat
they've not yet lost all their glow
could you try to take a look into my eyes?
draw the curtains hoping that the sun knows
all i see is you when the day glows
reminding me that you are just a shadow
for a split second in time my heart does not ache
thinking you'll be next to me then i shake
to see an empty bed and all over i break
am i allowed to lay down my smile
and be bitter just for a while?
don't keep pulling me under
we were meant to stay afloat
they've not yet lost all their glow
could you try to take a look into my eyes?
i shoulda known when you were grinding your teeth
that you were hiding your feelings from me
i shoulda known when you were tossing in your sleep
that you were hiding your feelings from me
we were meant to stay afloat
they've not yet lost all their glow
could you try to take a look into my eyes?
we were meant to stay afloat
they've not yet lost all their glow
could you try to take a look into my eyes?
